New Game Releases: September 14th-20, 2017

With popular properties like Metroid, Dishonored, Marvel Vs. Capcom, and NBA 2K making appearances across this week’s schedule of new game releases, there’s a strong likelihood that wallets will take a continued beating this week. Those who prefer more niche releases probably won’t have it any better, with both Mary Skelter: Nightmares and Muv-Luv Alterative due for arrival.

Robert’s Pick: Painting a dungeon pink with the blood of decimated foes is just one example of the weirdness that awaits in Mary Skelter: Nightmares. The game might look like your typical Eastern dungeon-crawl, albeit once where characters from Grimm’s Fairy Tales reconnoiter a living jail. But survival is less than effortless, thanks to the inclusion of enemies that are hunting you down and Blood Maidens that have the tendency to go frantic- even turning on their own team. On the upside, purging any corruptive tendencies involves giving a virtual rubdown. Maiden Heaven!
